Story of a Dreamer: Alhassan Mohammed Rahinatu Tuunaa


My Story

My name is Alhassan Mohammed Rahinatu Tuunaa, I was born on the 10th of August 2003 in  Chereponi, North East region of Ghana. My mum’s name is Diana Nartey and  my dad is Mohammed Sadick Alhassan. I am 16 years old and the first born of my parents. I’m from a deprived home, I live with my grandmother who sells sachet water as the only means of living. I completed Chereponi E/P JHS in the year 2019.

During the Chereponi crisis in the year 2019, I was interviewed by Joy news and the video went viral.Through that, the DREAMERS NETWORK (GH), had interaction with me, encouraged me to study hard to pass my B.E.C.E. By Allah’s Grace with the support and encouragement of the organization, I passed my test with  aggregate 14 and in fact it’s the highest score in the whole district.

All I knew at that time was to go to market to sell with my grandmother till I get married because there was no means to get the education I want due to financial problem.  But through the DREAMERS NETWORK (GH), sponsorship I’m now in my first year in OLA Girls Senior High School, at Ho which is my first choice of selection of the schools. My dream of becoming a lawyer is now on the right path.

I’m a proud ambassador of  DREAMERS NETWORK (GH).
